Pefrined snlmnn.

Henry Benson, OF Hayden Hill,
Lassen county, says The Sacramento
Record linton, has in his possession a
specimen OF petriiied salmon. The
former iieshy part resembles crystaliz.
ed and variegated quartz, retaining in
part the yellowish color of the salmon,
and what was formly the skin OF the
fish Is now sort OF porcelain or white
flint. The entire specimen is OF the
very hardest OF quartz In texture. It
was found on hillside at about 1900
feet altitude from the floor of Big val
ley. and evidently petrilied at that
point This would indicate that sal
mon inhabited the ancient rivers. the
beds Of which now form strata OF the
Sierra Nevada mountains. and in
which ancient channels lie the rich de-
posts OF California's gold. These an
cient river beds, as is we'll known. are
found at various heights above sea
level, and In some places but a few
hundred feet below the crest OF the
range, and perhaps hundreds OF feet
beneath solid formation Of mother
earth, and running entirely independ.
ent OF any present surface formation.
To determie with Ger tainity that sal.
mon inhabited these ancient rivers
would be an interesting fact, and IL
would fix at much later date than IL
now generally supposed the geological
period when by mighty upheaval. these
old river courses were changed and
obliterated from the face OF the
earth.

AN EPOCH IN HAWAIIAN HISTORY.

The Sandwich Islands, which COM
pose the kingdom of Hawaii, rs
several popular books Of travel have
recently reminded the world, are the
nearest approach to an earthly para
disc Imagination can conceive. BY
the progress of white colonization
they have become main station on
one of the chief of human high
ways. A splendid empire is being
built from the foundations on the
one side. On the other, the great
republic has marched to the ocean
on its west. Hawaii is grown re-
latively rs well as absolutely u thing
of mark. AS q halfway house for
the United States and Australasia, it
would have been Of inestimable value
to trade, had it been of inestimable
of barrenrocks. The completion of the
Canadian Transcontinental Railway
has rendered it Il center of fresh
line of traffic. It's manifold oppor-
tunites are apparent to the trading
nations of the world, and they have
not escaped the attention Of its own
rulers. King Kalakaua is conscious
of the prosperity within reach of his
realm, if only it possessed a suili-
cient population to reap the harvest.
His native subjects are handful,
and his territory would hold and
maintain many times the number.
Not without reason, he believes that
the human dearth could be supplied
il Hawaii and its circumstances
were better understood. His own
journey, five years back, was of use,
as had been that of Queen Emma
before it. But the effect of a royal
progress dies out. He has thought
that the permanent need might be
met by the establishment of regular
resident legations and there is little
doubt that his opinion is correct.
The appointment of Hawaiian
Charge d'Affaires in London is an
epoch in Hawaiian history London

FARnRCUT'S FLAGSHIP.

a dispatch from San Francisco
announces that the famous old flag
ship Hartford has been put out of
commission at the Mare Island Navy
Yard, and that there is a prospect
Of her remaining there to go to
decay. 1t is not strange that her
days of active service should be
over. She was built before the war,
and long ago ceased to be of use as
a war-ship. But in all the world to-
day there is not another ship that
has so much of historic interest.
Farragut, then Captain, took her
to the gulf in the winter of 1S61-62,
and from that time until the close of
the war he identified his fortunes
with her. 1t was in her that he
made the perilous passage up the
Mississippi, past Forts Jackson and
st. Philip, a feat up to that time un-
cqualed in the naval history OF the
world, and never equaled since ex-
cept by the same noble commander
on the same gallant ship. 1t was
with her and her consorts that he
captured the city of New Orleans
and held it until the military forces
arrived and took possession. In
her he ran past Port Hudson and
Nicksburg, and finding the army
unable to cooperate, ran back again
to New Orleans. In her he was
dashed to the rigging at the grand
battle of Mobile Bay. On her he
won promotion to the highest grade
then known in the navy, and Cong
gress, in recognition of new deeds
of yalor, created in succession, for
him alone, three new grades, until
as full Admiral he reached the sum-
nit, the equal in rank of the highest
naval officers of the world and their
superior in everything else.
1t was the achievements of the
Hartford, under the dauntless leader
ship of Farragut, that demonstrated
the uselessness of the old style of
forts, and revolutionized the system
of coast dcfenses. Never ship had
had such an honorable and brilliant
history.
1t cannot be that Secretary Whit
ney will allow this grand old ship to
be dismantled and broken. She
should be kept like sold Ironsides"
as long as there is anything left of
her to keep. And she should be
brought to her old home, at New
York, at once, before she is allowed
to 60 out of commission. TO the
hearts of all patriotic Americans she
should be as dear as Nelson's flag
ship, the Vanguard, is to the English
man. She is worth more 10 the
nation for the lessons she has taught
and still teaches, than any. new and
costly ship of modern build can be,
Bring her home, Mr.. Whitney,
Hartford, Conn, Courant.
